Bad Sounds Premiere Soul-Inspired Music Video for “Escaping From A Violent Time”
Cotswolds duo Bad Sounds continue to broaden their sound on new single “Escaping From A Violent Time”. Check out the music video here…
Brotherly duo Bad Sounds return with a brand new track, “Escaping From A Violent Time”, taken from the upcoming EP Escaping From a Violent Time, Vol. IV, the final instalment of their four-volume collection due in 2024.
Following on from the recent singles, “One The Ropes” and “Beggin”, “Escaping From A Violent Time” continues the duos musical evolution and represents yet another left turn in the Bad Sounds catalogue. Speaking about the single, they say:
“When it was originally conceived; the idea of “Escaping From A Violent Time” felt like a much more metaphorical statement. Something that could be applied to how each person is battling through their day to day lives, seeking distraction over solutions. But clearly we’re releasing the song at a time when the song can be interpreted in a much more literal way. Somehow this trend of writing something for one reason, and then it feeling entirely more relevant when it gets released seems to have been a theme throughout the releasing of this whole project. It makes us seem much more clever than we are.”

The band’s recent EP, Escaping From A Violent Time Vol. 3, released in April 2023, showcased Bad Sounds’ inimitable brand of alternative-pop. Delivering a broad spectrum of music both sonically and lyrically, ensuring they will not be put in a box. The series of EPs represents the purest distillation of their artistry yet.
Speaking about how the new single fits into their catalogue, the duo say:
“This song has been through many different iterations in its journey to being finished. At one point it was a country song, and at another point it sounded like “Sexual Healing” blended with “Band On The Run”. Happy to say we saw the error of our ways with those versions and the final version feels like it should to me; like a kind of affirming soulful mantra. A lot of love went into this song and I think the whole EFAVT saga would be incomplete without it.”
Staying DIY through and through, including building their own studio in the rural Cotswolds near their home, this base to both work on their own music and forge new creative relationships, has broadened their artistic scope more than ever before.
